What a Monday! It’s week three at the new job and I couldn’t be happier. I’ve been getting these bursts of adrenaline and excitement that I don’t remember feeling consistently since 2007 when I worked as a project engineer on this building. Let me just tell ya, it’s exciting to be excited about {real} work again!

And this excitement, rather than taking away from, is flowing directly into FoodFash. I drove home with atypical energy for 6-ish o’clock and a huge grin {one of those ear to ear kind}. I knew from the moment I walked in the front door that I was going to own the polenta pizza I had been dreaming about for days.

I made my own sauce, acknowledging that I prefer my marinara over most. And then I whipped out the new cast iron skillet that ordered through Gilt a few weeks back. I stacked and baked and topped and ate. I was satisfied, completely.
